**Belagavi, May 2, 2025** – Congress leaders in Karnataka have issued strong warnings to the BJP following alleged disruptions of Congress rallies and events. Deputy Chief Minister and KPCC president D.K. Shivakumar accused the BJP of employing “cheap tactics” such as infiltrating rallies and shouting insulting slogans. He threatened a strong political response if the BJP’s actions continue.
AICC president Mallikarjun Kharge echoed these concerns, urging Congress leaders to set aside internal differences and unite against what he described as the authoritarian rule and undemocratic functioning of the Union government. Kharge’s call for unity came during a “Save Constitution, Save Nation” rally in Hubballi on Thursday. Both leaders’ statements highlight escalating political tensions in the state.
